Sadly, I can’t even remember everything I put in the lost post. However, I do know that I had blogged about the latest Chewy delivery, so we’ll start there.
It’s another Sissy-friendly product! Before Sissy’s extensive allergies were diagnosed, they ate – and loved – EVO kibble, so it was exciting (for me) to see an EVO treat that is Sissy-approved. (For those not accustomed to my Sissy-centric vocabulary, that means basically no land animals, no corn products at all.) Despite some “expert opinions” that insist dogs don’t like variety, my girls’ reactions to new treats suggests precisely the opposite, and while there are no photos (in part because the treats are Gretchen-sized and also because they were excited and thus, no photo opportunities presented themselves), the girls LOVE the new to them herring flavor of the Wild Cravings.
(Now… how weird is that?! The post/draft is gone, but the “media” I uploaded was saved. Go figure.)
They are training treat sized for Sissy and most dogs, but for Gg, they’re just the right size for a snack, although the round shape does seem to break in the package, so there are Gg training treat bits too. If your dog likes fishy treats – and you don’t mind fish breath – give these a try! There are other flavors and a cat variety too. Thanks, Chewy! I’ve truly lost track of how many months in a row you’ve offered Sissy-approved options for us to try, but I do know that the past couple of months, there have been at least TWO options on the list of products for your bloggers to review.

In a drastic shift of topic, this blog’s media library suggests that I also FINALLY shared my CAbi purchases. It was basically this very look, but with darker ankle jeans and some in and out of fire truck friendly metallic flats. If you click on that link, it will show you the top in more detail – sure to be a three-season favorite for years to come – and the grey-yellow jacket, which I had to be all but held down and forced into, because I can’t wear yellow.
I am a CAbi fan now. All-day comfort, machine-washable, and I wasn’t too over-dressed at work but I was perfectly poised for an important League meeting after work. I look forward to actually being able to attend a show and add to my “collection” soon. I have my eye on several other pieces that should work well in my very casual work environment and with my general preference for … not too casual attire.
Sorry the selfie is so washed out. The walls in my office are actually a lovely, light tan, but with 
the lighting and the light-colored jacket… Yeah. Anyway, it proves that I can wear yellow, strategically.
Another new love is my most recent Lilly Pulitzer purchase. I found the wristlet at the register, and while my Lifeproof encased iPhone 5 doesn’t fit in the little interior phone spot, it does sit happily inside the case. There’s no coin zipper, but my large checkbook-wallet holds coins, so this is the perfect grab-n-go for me. I had a terrible time choosing which print I wanted, but given how much I hate to change bags, there’s no chance I’ll go back for another.

It’s significantly smaller than my previous go-to wristlet, which is a plus for me. While the previous trusted friend served me well for at least two years, it was really too large to really be a wristlet. I mean… if you can’t dangle it from your wrist without discomfort, it isn’t really a wristlet, even if it has the strap. And best of all, it’s printed PVC, so it’s easy to keep clean and it’s lightweight.
I’m pleased enough that I’m pondering the Lilly P iPad Smart Cover too. I found a “previous season” print on a discount website for significant savings, so what’s not to love?! (The shipping, but anyhoo… it’s still a great deal.)
Have you had any great finds lately?
